s role? >> i can't think the best model is ireland. when i lived in britain in the 1980s, any kind of peace deal in ireland was inconceivable. there's so much hatred and distrust. right now, there isn't a palestinian deal that we can do between palestine and israel. you can at least gradually move toward a situation where that becomes more feasible in the future and the steps to get there certainly involve a freeze on settlements. i think that's one of the critical ones. so, i wish the u.s. were doing more to try to create a situation where a middle east peace becomes possible down the road. one of the ironies of the middle east is we know what a deal will look like. a palestinian state with small trade offs. we know the terms. it's the clinton per am ters. they have been negotiated almost to the last "t." it's just a question of how we get there. >> is there anything you hold most dear in this office that once in awhile you take your head out of the computer screen, look at it and say that grounds me? >> one of the things i did back i
